This centuries-long plan for world government has always had an underlying thread of depopulation. Sometimes the evidence of this multigenerational conspiracy is buried in the details of declassified foreign policy documents and historic records, though oftentimes this eugenics plan is public knowledge masquerading as trusted science, school textbooks, and established cultural norms. Managing the human farm to maintain global control works most efficiently with fewer people. Covert methods are being employed to depopulate the planet to a more manageable level.

Humans are a puzzling species. On the one hand, we struggle to survive on our own in the wild, often failing to overcome even basic challenges, like obtaining food, building shelters, or avoiding predators. On the other hand, human groups have produced ingenious technologies, sophisticated languages, and complex institutions that have permitted us to successfully expand into a vast range of diverse environments. What has enabled us to dominate the globe, more than any other species, while remaining virtually helpless as lone individuals?

Humans live in landscapes of make-believe. We spin fantasies. We devour novels, films, and plays. Even sporting events and criminal trials unfold as narratives. Yet the world of story has long remained an undiscovered and unmapped country. It's easy to say that humans are "wired" for story, but why? In this delightful and original book, Jonathan Gottschall offers the first unified theory of storytelling. He argues that stories help us navigate life's complex social problems.
